Sunday Morning Church Thought

I struggled a lot with waking up so early and go to church on Sunday morning. BUT I told myself, I must go. Church never disappoints me. It is the house of God.

As usual, after 1 hour of Red Line –> Green Line –> Circle Line –> Bus. I reached church. In fact, I thought of changing a church. But end up giving up this idea. I should move somewhere near church one day.

The desire of going to church today was extremely strong. I could feel the calling since Friday. On Friday, by some reasons, I read My Utmost for His Highest.

I was very glad I read this,

“Our natural inclination is to be so precise– trying always to forecast accurately what will happen next– that we look upon uncertainty as a bad thing. We think that we must reach some predetermined goal, but that is not the nature of the spiritual life. The nature of the spiritual life is that we are certain in our uncertainty. Consequently, we do not put down roots. Our common sense says, “Well, what if I were in that circumstance?” We cannot presume to see ourselves in any circumstance in which we have never been.”

My situation was exactly on the opposite side as it suggested.

I was so shocked that I was able to understand and obey this but now it seemed very far from me.

I understood before that the Spirit Needs to be Refreshed.

As the cup needs new water so it won’t become a cup of spoiled water.

With the strong calling, I went to church.

I was late but caught the Offering and Title and Pitch parts.

He was a very humorous and smart pastor. A visiting pastor.

What he told us (I use Told not Taught) because you won’t feel he was teaching. He was telling us his stories with God, but full of meanings.

But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. — Matthew 6:6

I didn’t know why this (he used this) reminded me of so many things in the past. The beautiful memories.

Somebody told me, life moves on. But there are something, I think it is better not to let it go.
